What Our Customers Say

Three posts snapped in the windstorm. They came out fast, set new posts in concrete and saved the panels instead of pushing a whole new fence. Honest people.
Dan K.
Storm damage repair
Our driveway gate dragged for years. They rebuilt it with a steel frame and now it swings with one finger.
Greg P.
Gate rebuild
They showed us photos of the rot under the deck before touching anything and only fixed what needed fixing. Fair and honest.

Is Your Oregon City Fence Leaning, Rotting or Dragging?

Posts, rails, boards and gates put right on old river-town lots and newer hillside yards, matched to what is already there so the fence keeps its look.

Fence repair here splits into two kinds of yard. On the old blocks near the river, many fences are low pickets or short wood runs in front of houses that are a century old, and the goal is to fix them without changing their character. Up the hill, the 1990s and 2000s subdivisions now have fences that have stood through twenty-plus wet winters, and the trouble is usually posts going soft at the soil line or panels pulling loose on a slope.

We keep a fence repair the same size and style as what stands there now. That matters most on a historic property or inside the Natural Resource Overlay District, where a new design can need a city review. If you want to change height, style or location while we are there, we check your lot's status first and tell you before anything is ordered.

On sloped lots the downhill posts carry the most strain and sit in the wettest soil. When one of those fails, we dig it out, set the new post deeper with gravel below, and pull the panels back to level so the fence repair holds through the next rainy season.

What Affects the Cost of Fence Repair Here

Most bills come down to posts, matching and the ground the fence stands on.

  • Number of failed posts

    Each one is dug out, its footing broken up, and a new post set.

  • Matching an older style

    Older pickets and board widths take more care to match.

  • Slope

    Downhill posts on sloped lots are longer and set deeper.

  • Gate work

    Rehanging a gate is quick; replacing a leaning gate post takes longer.

  • Changes beyond repair

    A new height or style on a reviewed lot adds a step before we build.

Each job starts with a free written estimate.

Fence Repair Questions

My house is historic. Can you fix the fence without a review?
A repair that keeps the same size, style and location is usually just upkeep. If you want to change any of those, we check your lot's status first and tell you what the city needs.
Can you match old pickets?
Usually, yes. We measure the board width, spacing and top shape and cut new pickets to suit. New wood starts lighter, then weathers or takes stain to blend in.
Why do the posts at the bottom of my slope keep failing?
Water runs downhill and sits there, and those posts take the weight of the run above them. We set them deeper, drain the hole with gravel and shape the concrete to shed water.
While you're there, can you raise my back fence?
Up to 6 feet at and behind the front of the house, yes. Taller than that, or a change on a historic or overlay lot, needs a check first.
